Class

Class or more appropriately Character Class in Diablo III is one of several distinct races of human beings with their respective sets of advantages, disadvantages, abilities, skill-sets and attributes, available to the player to select their playing character from. The selection of character class must be done at the beginning and can not be changed. Players' choice of character class largely influences their playing strategy, inventory preferences and overall gameplay experience. Unlike previous editions (Diablo and Diablo II), classes in Diablo III are playable as a male as well as a female character, with their own distinct 3D models, voicing and animations.
